Albon Man (June 29, 1826 – February 18, 1905) was an American lawyer, scientist, and inventor who was associated with the early technology of the incandescent light bulb. He worked with William Edward Sawyer to develop inventions. He was a scientist and came up with ideas for potential inventions that would be useful for commercial products. Sawyer then worked out the mechanics of Man's ideas to make a workable product. Many of these then were patented by them, including the electric light system, which is the cornerstone of modern methods of electrical distribution.

He spent a lot of time litigating against others to defend his patents. There were many legal suits that Man filed against Thomas Edison for infringing on his patents, especially the incandescent lamp. The final ruling held that Man and Sawyer had perfected the lamp over a year earlier than Edison. Man was known worldwide as an authority on the principles of electricity and was a friend of Nikola Tesla. (en)
